(DA) Humanity was built to support each other

I think we, as humans, often forget one of our most basic instincts; to help others.

Ever wonder why it feels so good to help out another person? Because it's what we're meant to do. Imagine you helped people all the time, how fantastic would you feel? Answer: AMAZING.

I find people have an easier time helping animals than they do humans. Why? My guess is that animals are seen as inherently 'innocent', while we can look at people and judge them and their situations. It's harder for us to help a person because we know that they, unlike most animals, are not inherently innocent. They made choices, or decisions that affected their surroundings and circumstance.

It's harder to help people. And that's why it's so important.

Let's get back to basics. Help people. Don't judge, just do what you can for another human being and see how you feel.

I know from experience how much a small act of kindness can affect someone.
